    Lovely property, very clean and well equipped and a generous welcome pack on arrival. The private outdoor seating, directly on the sea wall was an added bonus and in good weather provides a quite tranquil place to relax. The pub and cafe in...

Located on the harbour wall, a few steps from Garlieston Beach, this property features a garden terrace, barbecue, and WiFi. Equipped with all the latest equipment and furnishings for a comfortable stay, the apartment features flat-screen TVs free Wi-Fi and an en-suite bathroom to main bedroom. The second bedroom is a double with main bathroom facilities. Robes and Emmy mattresses are a feature of the bedrooms. The kitchen is equipped with a coffee maker and percolator, kettle oven and microwave, as well as a washing machine, fridge/freezer and ample crockery, cutlery and cooking equipment. The view of the bay, with its ever-changing scenery is a unique feature of this modern and contempary apartment.
Welcome to Harbourside! Our family has owned a property in Garlieston for over ten years and recently have bought two more to let as holiday rentals. David, our brother, owns the Railway Inn in Whithorn (6 miles form Beachcomber) and Mickey, our sister, owns Beachcomber just a few doors from Habourside. We pride ourselves in the quality of our rentals and the local knowledge and general hospitality experience we have to make you feel at home in Garlieston and its surrounds during your stay. We can advise on scenic locations, towns, villages and attractions to visit (as well as local pubs and eating places) and can give you a "local's feel" of the area.
The area is popular for cycling, walking, sailing, fishing, paddle boarding, jet skiing, sea swimming, kayaking, canoeing, and a range of water sports. Part of Scotland’s first Biosphere, the area has been recognised by UNESCO for people and nature. This is a designation for its fantastic array of landscapes, wildlife, and cultural heritage. In addition, the locality is a dark sky area. The coastline is a testament to the region’s history. One of our most famous sites, St Ninian’s Cave, is protected by a pebble beach, nestled between steep, rugged cliffs. The first view of the cave is breathtaking: as you head toward the beach down a woodland path alternately carpeted with masses of snowdrops, bluebells, and wild garlic, you will lose all sense of time. For many, it is a place of religious importance, telling the story of Christianity’s arrival in Scotland. Not to be forgotten inland are pockets of ancient woodland surrounded by smooth rolling and relatively flat topography. Again, the diversity of species could send even the most amateur naturalist into a frenzy. It is no surprise that many areas are of environmental interest and protected.
